Director Biography - Caitlyn Alexis Mims

I'm a versatile professional with a background in producing, writing, acting, social media management, and assisting a talent scout. My journey in the entertainment industry began as an actor, where I gained valuable on-set experience, which eventually led me to produce my first short film. Since then, I've successfully produced two more short films and a TV pilot, all of which are currently being showcased in film festivals.
​
Throughout this creative journey, I've developed a deep passion for various forms of content creation. I expanded my horizons by interning with iHeartRadio, initially as a producer and blog writer, and later as a show host. Continuously seeking innovative ways to leverage content for the benefit of others, I've also managed social media accounts for diverse clients, including churches, car dealerships, studios, gyms, and radio stations.
​
Presently, I work as a freelancer, offering services in social media management for clients, talent scouting, and script revisions as well as an actor. My ultimate goal is to craft content that truly connects with and resonates with audiences, contributing to meaningful storytelling and engagement.

Director Statement

This film was inspired by my journey with body dysmorphia. I've always felt most comfortable in big, baggy clothes, struggling to perceive my body accurately. One day, as I lay on the beach, I reflected on this struggle and wondered, "If my hoodies could talk, what would they say about all of this?" That question sparked the idea for this short film.
